How to behave as member of the Footy Addicts community
Footy Addicts’ mission is to create happier, healthier and more sociable communities through football. Footy Addicts is an all inclusive community project. It starts from the players and it serves the players. We rely on the community to get us a step closer to our goal.
In order to achieve this, all our games must be played in a positive, welcoming environment. Respect is a core value of the Footy Addicts community and it applies on and outside the pitch. Any kind of abuse has no place in our community. So whether you are a player, an organiser, a venue staff member, a Footy Addicts staff member you should all be treated with respect.
✅ Do's
- Be polite: Always respect the venue staff and your fellow players. A friendly smile goes a long way.

- Promote inclusivity: Make an effort to learn and use each other's names during the game.
- Keep it friendly: Banter is part of the game, but keep it positive and fun. We're here for a good time, after all!
⛔ No-Nos
